Aladdin's Café is a hidden gem in Orlando that has been serving authentic Lebanese food for over 45 years. The dishes are full of flavor, using fresh and high-quality ingredients. The restaurant offers a variety of dishes like shish kebab, baba ganoush, chicken kebab, and cheese & phyllo dough appetizers. The baba ganoush is smooth and creamy, with a hint of smoky flavor, while the grape leaves are tasty and not oily. The shish tawook (chicken kabob) is nicely tender and marinated, with a unique grilled flavor. The fried kibbi is crunchy outside and soft inside, with a well-minced meat texture. The baklava is excellent, not too dry or overly sweet. The owner, Hassan, provides great tableside service and shares the restaurant’s 30-year history. The ambiance is clean and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for a delicious meal. Visitors often mention the calm atmosphere, friendly staff, and the delicious, fresh food that makes this place special. The grape leaves are handmade and very tasty, and even when ordering off the lunch menu, guests find the portions satisfying. The hummus is delicious, and the tabbouleh is incredibly crisp and fresh, tasting like it was just harvested. The falafel is crispy and flavorful, with a nice bite in every piece, and the falafel sandwich is made with care. The fried kibbi and meat pies are highly recommended, with aromatic flavors that do not overwhelm the taste, and good portions. The restaurant is unpretentious but offers honest Lebanese dishes of the highest quality. Although the waiter can be a little hard to understand, he is very attentive. Many guests say they love this place, coming back year after year, and consider it a true find for authentic Lebanese cuisine. Overall, Aladdin’s Café provides a great dining experience with friendly service and delicious food, making it a must-visit spot for Lebanese food lovers.
